The new tapaz2go product will expand the brand further into gluten-free nutritious snacking, comprised of a single serve pouch of protein-rich Mediterranean Snacks Lentil Crackers along with a container of wholesome hummus in one convenient, portable package.

“We are very excited about our tapaz2go innovation,” said Vincent P. James, founder and CEO of The Mediterranean Snack Food Company. “There is significant research showing that protein in snacking is becoming more desirable, and tapaz2go provides a snack alternative that satisfies both the appetite and the demand for a nutritious, protein-rich mini meal. We are confident this line, which leverages culinary trends of legumes, tapas and hummus, will be very well-received by a wide range of consumers.”
Mediterranean Snacks tapaz2go will each include Lentil Crackers Sea Salt combined with one variety of hummus – Classic, Roasted Garlic or Red Pepper. The individual package size is 3.6oz at a suggested retail price of $2.99 – $3.49, with shelf life of 300 days.
